Re: Keyword + Location VS Keyword

Can you give an example (or the specific) keyword you're referring to? If the keyword doesn't have local intent, you have zero chance of ranking unless you have a lot of time and money to rank for it.

If it does have local intent...say something like "plumbers" then it's the normal stuff you need to focus on when it comes to organic SEO - high quality content, well optimized site, awesome off-page SEO, reviews, shares, likes, etc. etc.

"Linda goes above and beyond for her students, teaching the ins and outs of local SEO. Both of Linda's trainings were excellent and covered material I haven't seen taught anywhere else. Her services and willingness to help both in her classes and outside the classes, went above and beyond my expectations.
